Ammon scare and Conference

We had a little scare today because I only felt Ammon move twice in five hours. I woke up at 5am and then at 10 we went to the hospital. Thankfully, the minute we pulled in to the parking lot, Ammon woke up! Phew. We felt grateful for that. I’ll have to go back and watch the talks the three new apostles gave today because all that happened during their talks.

But we loved all of the other talks. Abe and I felt spiritually rejuvenated and recommitted to trying not to care about anyone else’s opinion except for God’s. I personally loved Elder Christofferson’s talk too. I get a ton out of my personal prayers and scripture study, but sometimes I wonder why church. His talk is one I will go back to the next time I feel daunted by Sacrament meeting with young kids or get a calling I find distressing.

The girls stayed in pajamas all day and were SO GOOD. Abe and I were so happy with them. They literally played pretend all day long, and Abe and I basically just watched conference and rested the whole day. Mary fell asleep at 6pm and hopefully will sleep through the night. Pretending to be a baby bat, putting on puppet shows, hosting imaginary candy parties, making food art, and playing chase really tired her out.

Lydia spent her first waking hour going on and on about pachycephalosauruses and how dome headed dinosaurs are now her favorite dinosaurs. She announced that she was going to be a paleontologist AND an artist when she grew up.

While Lydia talked on and on about dome headed dinosaurs, Mary busied herself with her puzzle.
